rsync "--link-dest" option don't work for BIT because it check user/group/rights too:
1. BIT make snapshots read-only
2. some file systems don't support linux user/group/rights, like NTFS
3. rsync can't always set the correct u/g/r, ex: you backup a file that belong to root as a regular user

I didn't find a way to force it (it would make my file easier).

NOTE: BIT save u/g/r in a special file.
